Fall Webworm.

This insect is well known and needs
but brief description. They hibernate
in the pupe stage. and the image. a
small white moth, comes forth in May
or June according to latitude Their
eggs are deposited on the under side
of leaf in cluster, usually near the
tip of branch. The larve hatch in
July or August. They are quite gen.
eral feeders, and attack forest and
fruit trees almost Unfortunately.
The moths are seldom seen, as they fly
entirely at night. There is but one
breed in the Northern States, and two
in the South. The young worms
soon make their presence known by
the very conspicuous web which
they throw over themselves. The
presence of this web in late summer
or fall is an unmistakable sign of
their indemnity. They do not leave
this protecting net at all during
growth, but extend it from branch to
branch. taking in sometimes con-
siderable portion of one side of
fruit tree under one net. They eat
only the purple part of the leaves,
leaving the veins and under surface
scorched and scar behind them They
complete their growth during Septem-
Der and October, varying with lati-
tude, when they wander from the net
and soon drop to the earth to pupate
under loose soil or rubbish of any
character.

gists and orchardists that cutting off
the branches and completely destroy
ing the larvae in each colony by fire
or some effectual means is the best
way to deal with them. They can
readily be destroyed by applying a
blazing torch to the web, but this does
fully as much injury as cutting away
the branch, and in unskillful hands
may do much more. Paris green
would likely be effective, but where
the whole colony can be so readily
destroyed by cutting away the branch
on which they are feeding, 1t would
seem to be the cheapest and best rem.

There used to be a few cOluTed men
from the South in Congress and COM
plaint is being made by the Republican
papers that there is not man OF that
race in the present body. This gives
rise 10 the question, why don't the Re-
publicans give practical proof of their
affection for the black man by sending
few of them to Congress ? There is
surely one co!ored man in Philadelphia
and likewise PittSburg. the hCme of

instead of railing at and abusing the

plank Of the Republican party, adopted in

than a textuaI sermon on that passage of
the resolutions which promises to reduce
the surplus py correcting the Inequalities OF
the tariff" and Il is certainly none the less
binding on the Republicans for being now
so indorsed by a Democratic President.
This Is not a time, as the message justly
claims, for the discussion OF the theories OF

As no synopsis of the Presidents
message could to anything like justice
TO that important State paper, We pub
lish it in full in our present issue. Il
is comparatively brief when contIasted
with previous deliverances OF theisame
character and discusses only one sub
ject-reduction of the surplus in the
treasury. Although the message is
addressed 10 Congress the great purpose
OF is author is that it shall reach and
be read in every household In the land,
for the simple reason that It discusses
questions which come straight home to
the welfare of what Abraham Llcoln
called the ''plaiu common people, It's
brevity and the great Importance of the
questions it treats will cause il to be
more generally read than any message
sent TO Congress since the close OF the
civil war.
